How much breastmilk are you storing in each freezer bag?

Question

breastmilk are you storing in each freezer bag?" /> 
Or do you freeze a variety of quantities? If your child is going to daycare do they separate them appropriately throughout the day or do you have to send enough bottles with the desire you think your child drinks? Please let me know ladies.

Answer

I freeze varying amounts per bag but try to keep it around 4oz a bag so I can thaw and bottle them appropriately. 
My daughters daycare required that I pre thaw and bottle them for the day.

Answer

I fill it up to 8 oz each bag. My daughter would drink 4 oz but she’s drink the remaining at the next feed so it just sits in the fridge. I felt like I was wasting bags doing only what she ate

Answer

Do what your baby drinks. Mine drinks 5 oz. I send four bags of 5 oz to daycare. She also has three frozen as back up.

Answer

I have been doing 4 oz but my baby just hit 4 months and I am not really sure how much she is eating per feeding so I have the milkies freezer trays which does 1 oz cubes, I am gonna keep doing 4 oz bags but also the 1 oz cubes at least until I have an idea of how much she is eating. That way it will be easy enough to just add an Oz or 2 to a bottle she is satisfied

Answer

Freeze what baby eats.

Answer

I would freeze as much as I could pump out different amounts each time

Answer

3-4

Answer

I was doing random amounts (I used to pump 14 oz at once) but switched to 2 oz bags because he rarely takes a bottle (once every 1-2 weeks) and sometimes 3-4 oz is too much so I got tired of wasting milk.
